A CHINESE man is reportedly stuck in South Korea after his four-year-old son doodled all over his passport, leaving him unable to fly home with his family. But people have started questioning if the scribbling is a fake.

The budding artist allegedly took to his father’s passport with a black felt tip pen, making his dad’s eyes and lips bigger and drawing extra facial hair all over his head.

The boy also drew some animals, a few additional people and some flowers.

The man — whose name is only given as Chen — tried to board his flight back to China from South Korea but was stopped by security.

His family is believed to have flown home but Chen is still stranded in South Korea, forcing him to take to Chinese social networking site Weibo to try and find a solution.

This dad “can’t return to the country,” a May 16 Weibo post reads. “What is [he] to do? Please help.”

But the fact that the man’s name, signature and passport number have been made unidentifyable by the drawing has raised suspicions that it is a fake.

The pen doesn’t look like it has made any indentation on the paper and the felt tip pen hasn’t smudged at all.

The drawing also trails off the page to the far right of the passport.
